I purchased this book while in Wyoming when I first started taking Landscape Photos, and this book gives you more information then most College level books, I have taken some great photos using Mr Lange Book and if you want to take some great shots I would suggest purchasing it for your libary.

Sure, go ahead, stack a polarizer and enhancer on. Why not an 81B and a UV/haze as well? Maybe Mars looks like this but not Earth! There are situations in which A single filter is appropriate, but rarely together, and CERTAINLY not on every single shot.
An annoying experience.
Check out any book by the late Galen Rowell or by any member of the Muench family or John Fielder. They can teach you how to capture the light without having to "enhance" it!
Great Book July 22, 2001
This is a great book to teach basic and intermediate tips for landscape photography. I am new to photography (less than 1 year) and found this to be a very useful resource.The book also has a lot of beautiful photos illustrating the tips and techniques discussed. I highly recommend this book.

Joseph K. Lange's extensive use of polarizing and "enhancing filters" on his landscapes made this book very difficult for me to look at. Some otherwise wonderful landscapes were turned into pictures I found hard to look at. I can not recommend this book.

The author covers the necessary subjects of composition, lighting, exposure, equipment, and other items specific to landscape photography. My complaint with the book is with the photos. Mr. Lange makes extensive use of an enhancing filter, and I quickly became tired of looking at the world through rose colored glasses. The objective though, is to be able to make the photographs come out the way YOU want them to look, and this book can help you learn that. The book is definitely a good purchase, if only for the expertise that the author shares with the reader. For me the book paid for itself within the first few pages though, as I learned to save the cost of purchasing an enhancing filter.
